And you're not concerned at all about having a complementary defensive end not named Cam Jordan than can be available for the Tournament?

Scary thought.

Later did we find out Cam Jordan was playing injured in the Vikes 2019 wildcard game. Another pass rusher opposite CJ is needed and necessary.

Myself, I would be more concerned about a DT first than another DE. Crush the middle everything else falls into place. I'm loving the Auburn guy DT/DE Marlon Davidson the more I look at him. I think he would make a huge difference in the D line.

No, we need to acquire a 2 but doable. You know how Payton don't ever have all 7 picks , ever. My dark horse.

I doubt there are 7 players we could pick up that would make the roster over what we already have available on roster. We have one of the best rosters in the league. ****ty teams can draft seven players that all make the squad. Quantity of picks are less important than quality for better rosters.

I agree but any team that have fewer picks need to do well with those picks. Law of average. Ireland has did well since coming here. A few of those seem kind of steep but have hit on a few also. Garner was a steal.

Yup. That's why I don't mind bundling picks to move up to get more dependable starter quality.

RDE (2) 92 - Marcus Davenport, 96 - Carl Granderson, 57 - Noah Spence (FA 2020)

NT (2) 90 - Malcolm Brown, 95 - Taylor Stallworth, 77 - Jalen Dalton (RFC 2020)

DT3 (2) 93 - David Onyemata (FA 2020), 99 - Shy Tuttle, 98 - Sheldon Rankins

LDE (2) 94 - Cam Jordan, 91 - Trey Hendrickson, 97 - Mario Edwards

Onyemata, Rankins, Tuttle, and you've got Mario Edwards on Ready-5 that can play DT3...

Not sure we could even afford another one - what we're shallow at is Defensive End...

That depends on health but is Rankins going to want a big contract, Ony just got his and Jordans contract is a constant. I don't count on Edwards. Hendricks I like. Tuttle, jurys still out. As far as Rankins goes Rankins is not that dependable, good when on the field but can he stay on the field? Hasn't lived up to his part of the deal with his draft status in my opinion.
